6. Operating Instructions
6.1. DC Voltage Test
To measure DC voltage:
- Turn the rotary switch to the "V=" position.
- Insert the red test lead into the VΩHzT+ terminal and the black test lead into the COM terminal.
- Connect the test leads across the component or circuit to be measured.
- Read the DC voltage value on the LCD display.
Caution: Do not input voltage more than 1000V DC. Exceeding this limit can damage the meter.
6.2. AC Voltage Test
To measure AC voltage:
- Turn the rotary switch to the "V~" position.
- Insert the red test lead into the VΩHzT+ terminal and the black test lead into the COM terminal.
- Connect the test leads across the component or circuit to be measured.
- Read the AC voltage value on the LCD display.
Caution: Be cautious against electric shock when measuring high voltage. Do not input voltage more than 750V AC.
6.3. Resistance Test
To measure resistance:
- Turn the rotary switch to the "Ω" position.
- Insert the red test lead into the VΩHzT+ terminal and the black test lead into the COM terminal.
- Ensure the circuit under test has all power removed and that all capacitors have been discharged fully before connecting the test leads.
- Connect the test leads across the component to be measured.
- Read the resistance value on the LCD display.
6.4. Temperature Test
To measure temperature:
- Turn the rotary switch to the "℃/℉" position.
- Connect the thermocouple probe to the VΩHzT+ and COM terminals, ensuring correct polarity.
- Place the thermocouple probe in contact with the object or environment whose temperature is to be measured.
- Read the temperature value on the LCD display. Use the SELECT key to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit if needed.
Caution: Do not import voltage in the temperature function. Only use the provided thermocouple probe for temperature measurements.
6.5. AC Current Test
To measure AC current:
- Turn the rotary switch to the "400A" or "1000A" AC position.
- Important: Before this measurement, disconnect the test leads from the meter for safety.
- Open the clamp jaws using the jaw-opening handle.

- Incorrect Readings: Ensure test leads are properly connected to the correct terminals. Verify the rotary switch is set to the appropriate function and range. For current measurements, ensure only one conductor is clamped.
- APP Connection Issues: Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone and the multimeter. Restart both the app and the multimeter. Ensure you have the latest version of the "Intelligent Meter" app.
- "OL" (Overload) Display: This indicates that the input value exceeds the selected range. Switch to a higher range or verify the circuit conditions.
- Buzzer Not Working: Check if the continuity function is selected and if the resistance is below 100 Ω.
If problems persist, contact customer support for assistance.
